Chereads / Wait, What? I'm a Phoenix? / Chapter 37 - Chapter 37

Chapter 37 - Chapter 37

After it took form, it emited loud roar again, but as Di Xueyan is not caught of guard, she was able to stabilize herself while her clothes and hair are fluttering in the air, making her look ethereal. Coupled with her narrowed phoenix eyes which already turned gold without her knowing and the white diamond in her forehead that is currently turning into red, she looks so mesmerizing that even the emperor regains his sanity at that very moment. Her appearance seems like a holy water that can baptize all the sinners in the world with only one look.

No one, not even her, had sensed the faint holiness that she is emitting right now, as she is busy scrutinizing the foe in front of her, while the others are mesmerized with her gentle yet blazing beauty.

Di Xueyan's small plump lips turned into a little cold smile, which almost blind everyone and made their hearts skipped a beat, as a realization dawned on her.

The beast never went out just a moment ago, but the moment that the sword was crushed, it was like a key that made the beast escape possible. She doesn't know what is with her for her to be able to unleash the beast, but she seems to know that no one but her can do it. It was just her gut feeling though.

The beast looks like stretching his whole being, as he has been in coma for thousands of years since his master ditched him in that kingdom. All he can remember for these thousands of years is an ink blank canvass covering his vision. He seems dead but his conciousness is alive. He can hear everything within a thousand radius. Humans' cruelty is his best past time, but sometimes it irritates him to the point that he wants to shut his head and be dead for good anymore. Who wouldn't want to bang their heads if he can hear some idiotic schemings that only toddlers would believe? There are times that he wanted to knock some senses to those stupid people because he is very uncomfortable hearing their stupidity but he can't as he is in coma, so he really wanted to commit suicide to stop his brain from deteriorating.

He has been a fearsome, malicious and heartless companion beast of his master hundreds of thousands years ago. His name shook the whole continent because of his violent and destructive nature along with his master, but being with idiots for tens of thousands years, he really wants to cry without tears to shed as he feels that even his imposing aura is deteriorating along with his brain.

How would he know that even his heartbeat can make any colored cultivators burst in prolonged exposure? Surely, he is underestimating himself too much.

" Dark beast! I am your master! Do as I say and annihilate this bitch in front of me!!", the emperor then laugh out loud as he pointed at a blank faced Di Xueyan who is now looking at the beast cautiously but a hint of irritation flashed her eyes as she heard the word 'bitch' .

' Endure girl, you have to endure. You have to understand people with brain disability'.

The beast face turned blank. He, the mighty legendary Ancient Black Dragon Long Jian, became an ordinary dark beast in the eyes of this another stupid human being.

' He should call me legendary ancient black dragon! LEGENDARY ANCIENT BLACK DRAGON! Not a damned dark beast because those beasts are too lowly for my noble blood!', he is fuming in his head but maintains a blank expression in his face as he continues to scrutinize the silhouette of the man who spoke to him. Because he was in coma for a long time, even though he is a mighty beast, his eye sight is still a little blurred, but he can still see aura.

" You have my aura?", he asked in an imposing manner. He can't possibly let a mere human being, take advantage of him right?

" Yes, and I am your master. You have been serving my family since ancient times and I am the one who awakens you from your slumber, so kneel in front of me and let us finish this farce", the emperor proudly straightened his body while trying to sound imposing. The black dragon and Di Xueyan simultaneously raise their brows.

The black dragon, Long Jian, doesn't know whether to laugh or to instantly destroy the place he is in. He remains unmoving, face still blank, as he wonders whatever gone wrong with his life. If before, he can just make this kind of stupid human being as a meat patty, but now, he knows that he has to put up with this farce in a peaceful manner, else his master will blame him for turning his friend's descendant into meat ball.

He is thinking too highly of his master, if his master is here, he would have let him do whatever he wants.

" Excuse me? Since when did I served your damned family?", Long Jian tried his very best to stay calm amidst this crazy situation.

The emperor is taken aback. It seems like he has to make this stupid beast realize the effort his family had done for him.

" Only with my family's purest blood will you be awaken!", the emperor emphasized.

" Idiot, I only needed a cup of that pure blood, not a dead corpse dripping with blood", he mockinly replied as he remembers how this cruel man tortured his sister as if she is just a newly butchered pork meat.

Actually, there was a scripture on how to awaken the ancient black dragon made by the dark empress of the kingdom, the emperor must be too stupid to misunderstood whatever was written there.

" So what? It was just the same anyways.", the emperor smirked indifferenly, as if he is not talking about his blood sister but about how the flowers in spring blooms beautifully than in winter.

" You vicious man! You're not a human! You're a demon! A demon! ", Jin Linkai cried his heart out as he tries to break the damned barrier in front of him and just skin the hateful man alive.

" Hey! Don't you dare degrade and compare us to a shit. I'm a demonic creature, but I loved my sister dearly", the ancient black dragon immediately defended as he thinks about how unfair the world is. He maybe was a violent, destructive, malicious and whatever negative adjective there is in the world, but he is just a simple brother when it came to his baby sister until she got independent. Speaking of his sister, he missed her very much.

Looking at his wronged expression and then with the sudden melancholy in his eyes, Jin Linkai cried harder as he realized how hypocrite humans are.

" Yes, a demon is a million ways better than a selfish, greedy man such as you!", Jin Linkai knows that he is spouting nonsense now as the heartless man is not even moved in the slightest.

The emperor ignored Jin Linkai and just focused his attention to his glorious beast. As if it is his.

" My ordinary citizens blood were already sucked by you! And now you proved yourself worthless?", the emperor's patience is already very thin at this moment as he can't believe how stubborn this darned beast is.

Di Xueyan's hands formed into tight balls. Even she, has not realized that her whole being is already shaking due to rage. She can't help but to feel her heart tearing as she imagines how terrible their deaths were. She can't help but to glare at the demonic creature that has long been on top of them.

The poor creature suddenly felt a chill ran down his spine. He must be powerful, but he knows that only few beings can make him feel this way, and those are with way superior blood than him. He is an ancient mythical beast that not even the royal mythical beasts can dream of surpassing, so who is this brat that can make him feel this way? He surveyed the surrounding and found a very familiar but very different aura. He can only see the silhouette, but he knows that she might be a very fair young lady just based on her imposing aura. Her glare makes him subconsciously defends himself.

" Excuse me, have you really read the scripture that was passed down from generation to generations of your family? The blood was not sucked by me but to the sword that was crushed just a moment ago. The sword was meant to supress me, so it has to strengthen itself through the usage of blood. It is a pity that you haven't met a powerful but with ordinary blood foe, instead, you have to trigger an enemy with a very high blood, so don't you dare accuse me of something as heinous as that", the ancient black dragon righteously retort. As he wonders, since when did this kingdom produced someone with very high blood that even he can't determine but seems to rival his master?

In the Huang Continent, the family blood is also graded. The higher the cultivators' blood are, the higher the cultivation they can attain. They are divided into, Low, Medium, High, Earth, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Superior, Mythical, Diety and Heavenly. Each are divided into 3, which are the lowest, middle and upper. In Black Tortoise Kingdom, the highest blood, the royals, are lowest medium, except for Jin Linkai's mother, which is Upper Medium. Their family might come from the dark empress, but their blood is already impure, thus it deteriorated to such state.

Di Xueyan already knows the ridiculous blood hierarchy, but she doesn't know that she has a very high blood. She is excited and her little greedy creature in her mind is urging her to steal more treasures for cultivation. If her mother will know her thoughts, she will be puzzled as to where are the mountains of cultivation materials, not including the stolen ones, that she had given to her daughter?

" What? Are you kidding me?", the emperor asked wide eyed.

" You dared doubt me stupid human?!", the ancient black dragon is now really furious that someone questioned his credibility. If it was before, everyone will have no choice but to accept his words as the truth! But now this ignorant human being who is not only stupid but also incredibly stupid dared to question him?!

Di Xueyan just silently watches them bicker like little children. She never expected that an ancient flapping bird like the one in front of her likes to argue so much that she suddenly felt that something is wrong but can't pinpoint it.

" You just have to fulfil my wish and destroy the girl in front of me now!", the emperor rashly ordered. He was suddenly affected by something faint just a moment ago emitted by that girl, and for him it is not a good news.

The ancient black dragon's vision is slowly returning right now, so he landed in the ground in a very imposing manner. The winds produced by the flapping of his wings is very strong that the fallen debris that was scattered in the previous fights are now flying in different directions as if a tornado is currently displaying the nature's revenge.

Even Di Xueyan has to hold her lower skirt inconspicuously to avoid her underwear to be seen.

' This damned pervert dragon!', she glared at the proud flapping bird maliciously, which almost made the poor dragon scales rise. The poor dragon even has to shake his body to get rid of the feeling.

He looks at the white clothed girl in front of him, who has been glaring all the time and can't help but to gape when he saw her delicate face.

" Too alike! You are too a like!", the dragon murmurs while in daze as he stares at the delicate but glaring beauty in front of him.

" What the hell are talking shits about?", Di Xueyan, who was not in the mood, is more irritated at the dragon's stare.

' too alike my ass', she rolled her eyes.

The ancient black dragon is stupefied for a moment. Who would have thought that a little beauty like her will have such dirty mouth?

" Too a like, but not the eyes", he seriously muse. At the moment, Di Xueyan's eyes already turned dark brown again.

" Your aura is too different but too familiar, that's why", the dragon doesn't know whether to laugh or to cry.

" Mistress, you're back", the ancient black dragon bow down, which made everyone dumbfounded, making them miss the glint that flashed his eyes.
